      Hello, I'am Luiz Fernando from Brazil. About the Strength Test (Width/Lateral) you made a mistake.
      The first test with the 3M Tape the measurement equipment was configured to measure lb but in the following tests was configured to measure kg. That way the results are:
      Ordered by time >>
      8:23 3M Tape: 16,2 kg or 35,80 lb
      9:15 Fasten Tape: 14,5 kg or 31,96 lb
      9:31 Gorilla Tape: 30,2 kg or 66,57 lb
      9:50 Scotch Tape: 17,7 kg or 39,02 lb
      10:01 Trex Tape: 29,1 kg or 64,15 lb
      Ordered by resistance >>
      9:31 Gorilla Tape: 30,2 kg or 66,57 lb
      10:01 Trex Tape: 29,1 kg or 64,15 lb
      9:50 Scotch Tape: 17,7 kg or 39,02 lb
      8:23 3M Tape: 16,2 kg or 35,80 lb
      9:15 Fasten Tape: 14,5 kg or 31,96 lb

    Having used duct tape extensively in a prior career, I can attest that you don't always want the "strongest" tape - you want the one that works best for your application. It was very interesting seeing how it wasn't the same tape brands that performed the best on all tests. Also, as you pointed out, you tested at room temperature. For some applications, it might be more important to work well at either higher or lower temperatures. In my case, we needed a tape that would stick well to a slightly oily surface. All in all, this was really informative!

      I think there could be two other tests to help decide which brand to buy depending on application. But both would be performance over time therefore difficult to do. One test would be resistance/performance when exposed to UV light from the sun over time. I have seen some duct tapes dry out and get crumbly after long exposure to the sun. Another test would be exposure to water, over time, to see how resistant or waterproof the different brands are.

    Rank based off total points (higher is better).
    1. T-Rex: 261 pts
    2. Gorilla: 216 pts
    3. 3M: 130 pts
    4. Duck: 43 pts
    5. Fasten: 39 pts
    6. Scotch: 24 pts
    Comments: It seems overall Gorilla tape and T-Rex tape are quite similar, with T-Rex winning out because of the adhesive properties being significantly stronger. If you need purely strength, Gorilla tape is probably the way to go. But if you need strong adhesion and strength, then use T-Rex tape. 3M seems to be an ok budget option.
    Explanation: I mathematically mapped all the results for each tape from each of the categories on a scale from 1 to 100 (100 is best, 1 is worst). Then I totaled the mapped values and ranked them to determine which tape came out on top. The more points the better. The reason for this is to allow for tapes that were significantly better in a category to be ranked more fairly. For example, without the mapped totals, T-Rex (with it's incredible adhesion) scores lower than Gorilla by rank.

    Based on this video I bought a roll of Gorilla Tape. Around Thanksgiving I was putting up Xmas decorations outside. Running an extension cord across the front walk I wanted something to hold it down so it wouldn't be a tripping hazard. So I ran it through a gap in the concrete sections and taped it down with Gorilla Tape. Cleaned and dried the surface of course and pressed the tape firmly. It's been there about 7 weeks through snow and rain and seems to be doing fine. No loosening to speak of. Good tape.

    I recently came across your channel a few weeks ago. This was one of the first "older" videos I watched; they have "How it's made" sort of production feel to them. While the engineer in me appreciates the slower pace and the more thorough explanations for the testing methods, I like the changes you've made over the years (picking up the pace, additional summarization of results, having your own general "picks" at the end, more fluidity in your speech, and a little more "excitement" 🙂). This is one of very few channels out there that actually adds new value to the internet, and I truly appreciate it. I just for the hope for the sake of mankind that people don't start doing reaction videos to your videos.

      @spacepioneer4070 4 роки тому +9

      Exactly, because most people wrap multiple times to secure an object. These brands obviously have different "thread counts" or thickness. This would without a doubt give you an idea of price to performance. If you can get twice the amount of tape from a weaker brand than a stronger brand, but wrap it twice for a percentage stronger than a single wrap of the stronger brand for the same price, ect...

    • @bekimbal9658
      @bekimbal9658 4 роки тому +14

      I have found that too many times the cheaper tape doesn't hold. So I end up using far more of it than if I just bought Gorilla tape to begin with. Time is money too, and if you are wasting time always re-taping something then the cheaper tape is more expensive. The only time I would want tape that doesn't stick well, is if I want to pull it off easy with little residue left behind. I never heard of T-Rex before. It is not sold in stores around here.

    Thanks for posting this comparison. It was very well done with some inventive testing procedures. As someone who tests pressure sensitive labels and tapes professionally I would point out that one important variable you didn't indicate is the dwell time of the bond. PSA bond strength tends to increase over time so for many applications this should be a controlled factor when testing.

      definitely depends on use, if adhesion is an issue, it has a significant advantage. Though others may perform better, by comparison, on different surfaces (ex: damp, cold, rough, oily, metal, plastic, fabric). I would be very interested to see those results as well.

I was more enticed by the follow through such as controls, extreme outliers, but they tested them anyway. I was in middle school when Mythbusters first started airing and when i see notifications on my phone that you have a new upload, i get genuinely excited. Again keep it up Mr.Farm and call me a kiss ass but i cant help i love your videos but more so the experiments, the follow through, even including MSDS's for tested material (now known as SDS i think)
